The temporary permit is necessary in the public interest;

(2)

The denial of the permit would cause undue hardship;

(3)

The permit is necessary for a limited time only.

The city administrator may place on the permit those conditions deemed necessary in the public interest. A temporary permit may be issued for a period not longer than thirty days. At the expiration of the temporary permit, all signs, merchandise or other objects shall be removed by the applicant. The applicant shall have the right to appeal, in writing, the action of the city administrator to the city council. The city council shall have the right to deny or issue the permit and, if a permit is issued, to impose such restrictions or conditions as it may see fit. The decision of the city council shall be final.
